3. Low battery: Allows users to define a battery
power percentage level that will trigger an
alert from the system, warning them to replace
batteries.
4. Advanced Notification: Allows the user to set
notifications based on more advanced rules,
such as comparing past data points with the
current one to determine if the notification
should be sent.
Setting and Editing Notification Setting
1. People to Notify: Start typing a name into the
box and the system will automatically populate
the name of a user within your sensor network.
If there are already multiple users on the
network, a drop down list of names will appear.
Select the name of the user for the notification.
If the person to be notified does not ha an
account on the network, you may quick add
them by selecting the "Add Recipient" link and
entering in their contact information.
2. Notification Parameter: This area allows the user
to set notification parameters such as naming
the notification, customizing the notification
message and setting sensor conditions that will
trigger the notification.
3. Assigned Devices: Allows you to tell the system
which sensor(s) will trigger the notification being
created. When a notifications is sent from the
system, it will automatically include the sensor
name and data that caused the notification to
be sent.
A notification can be assigned to multiple
sensors. Application specific notifications (ex.
Temperature) can only be assigned to sensors
of that application type. General notifications
such as "battery status", can be assigned to
any or all sensors.
Exporting Sensor Data
Clicking on the "Export" tab within the sensor data
window allows you to export sensor data to a comma
separated value (.csv) file or send the sensor data to
an external web source.

To export sensor data you must first select the date
range for the data you want to export. Once the date
range is selected, determine whether you want sensor
data from the selected sensor only, from all sensors
in the network or all sensors assigned to the account.
When you are finished, click on "Export Data" at the
bottom of his window. The data will be exported to a
comma separated value (.csv) file format.
Note: Only the first 2,500 records within the selected
date range will be exported.
You can alternately send your sensors' incoming data
to a 3rd party by clicking on the "Configure data push"
button at the bottom of the window. From this area
you can pass data from your wireless sensor network
devices to another service in real time. This is done
by coding the data into a URL query then sending the
data via http get request at the time data is received.
There is an extensive list of parameters that can be
passed, as listed in the viewed window, that allow you
to send detailed information about both the data and
the sensor.
Calibrating Sensor Data
Certain wireless sensors can be calibrated for more
accurate readings (ex. Temperature sensors). If
calibration is possible for a sensor, the "Calibrate" tab
will be visible in the detail view. To calibrate a sensor,
replace the last reading with the more accurate
reading and click "Calibrate". All future readings
from the sensor will be based off the new calibration
setting.
Manage Sensor Networks
To view or edit information about your wireless sensor
network(s), click on "Manage" in the main navigation.
This area allows you to edit network details, create
